EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative handcoloured copperplate engraving, created by Nasi from Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World" published in Florence in 1842, offers a glimpse into the daily life of Muslim boys in the days leading up to their circumcision in the late 18th century. The scene takes place in the Ottoman Empire, with the grand Vizier, Koca Mehmet Ragip Pasha, and other Ottoman statesmen and dignitaries looking on as young Muslim boys prepare for the ritual. The boys are dressed in traditional attire, some wearing red fez hats and others holding prayer beads. In the background, goats are tethered, destined for the sacrificial rite that follows the circumcision ceremony. The engraving, copied from Ignace Mouradgea d'Ohsson's "Tableau General de L'Empire Ottoman," published in Paris in 1790, is a historical illustration that captures the significance of this important rite of passage in Islamic culture. The intricate details of the engraving, from the ornate clothing to the expressive faces of the boys and the dignitaries, transport us back in time and offer a unique perspective into the lives of people in the Ottoman Empire during the late 18th century.
